going into 2016. >> talk about hillary clinton, the possibility she could be subpoenaed. what about the president of the united states. he was not in the situation room that night. he was at the white house. so what if the president of the united states went up to have dinner and was consulted by staff, could this reach the president? >> i don't know. i guess anything is possible. depending on what comes out in the hearings. one thing i can say -- the democrats are saying the republicans are trying to politicize it, just like the democratic party, but the fact of the matter is hillary clinton should want these hearings. she's going into 2016 and if there was no smoke, no fire, if you will, then she should be hoping the hearings happen to prove there is no scandal here so if she does run that she'll have all of this behind her. so i think the democrats should hope that the hearings take place in the select committee to prove nothing was going on at all. >> and if the hearings don't show that. >> well that would be a damning indictment of not only of the obama administratio
